Features

Comfortable Mattress

The iKamper BDV Duo hard top tent is perfect to comfortably fit two adults. As mentioned, it comes with a playfoam mattress, basically unique in the RTT world except for other iKamper tents. It is a 9-zone, 2.75 inches thick insulated polyfoam mattress, you can literally feel the comfort and how the mattress absorbs your weight allowing you to sleep like a rock.

Besides the mattress, another "comfortable" feature is the fact that opening and closing the tent literally takes less than 60 seconds. Being a wedge tent, just pull it up, or shut it down, and you're ready to sleep or to go!

On top of this, the iKamper BDV is built by hand in their headquarters in South Korea, where the quality control and manufacturing process are top notch. This is one of the highest quality roof top tents in the world, and they make sure every step of the process is near to perfect, so you get an excellent tent. As a matter of fact, their attention to detail and improvement, brought them to create the new 9-zone mattress, which is hard to match in the overlanding industry.

4-Season Roof Top Tent

It’s a 4-season roof top tent, with a durable floor made of insulated honeycomb aluminum, ideal for even the coldest winter. The exterior shell is made of FRP, with a rocky black finish, anti-scratch and UV resistant. The canvas a breathable 300gsm poly-cotton material, with a black-out interior to help you sleep even better. Plus, it comes with a waterproof rainfly, in case it starts raining.

If you decide you want more ventilation, this RTT allows you to open all three sides, left, right and back. The windows are very big, so airflow is excellent. At the same time, during colder months, the thickness of the canvas is good enough to protect you during the colder winters. 

Another great thing is having the option of using the ladder on any side of the tent, right, left or back, meaning it's easy to get on or off even if your rig has awnings or other accessories. Plus, you can even move the ladder when you are inside the tent. Hooking it to the sides of the BDV isn't complicated, and the ladder isn't as heavy, so you can switch from one side to another in case you need to do so.

Fits 2 People With Ease

The tent has a footprint of 89” x 69”, which means it’s suitable for larger vehicles such as 4Runner, GX470, or trucks with taller bed racks or truck bed caps. That said, the footprint itself, as stated before, is perfect for two adults. As to the height, when open it’s 55.25”, quite a bit more than other tents.

Perhaps one of the most impressive things about the iKamper BDV Duo is that when closed it’s only 7”, which won’t allow you to leave much inside of it, but at the same time such a low profile allows you to park almost anywhere. Say goodbye to problems with parking your vehicle and tent inside a garage, or covered parking lots.

When fully open, the BDV will sleep two adults without any issues, when closed it'll let you fit your vehicle in many tighter places. And on top of all that, it gives you the option of adding additional cargo and accessories to either the sides of the tent, or even over it! It has slats that go from side to side, with a channel between them, where you can safely secure accessories, tie down straps, or even install solar panels. All in all, this roof top tent becomes a solid cargo carrier when closed.

FAQs

iKamper BDV Duo FAQs:

Will the BDV Duo fit a smaller SUV, such as Subaru Outback?

Ideally, being a larger tent, around 89” long, you’ll want a bigger vehicle, such as a Toyota 4Runner, a GX470, or a truck with a tall bed rack or a bed canopy. That said, it can be mounted onto smaller SUVs, just make sure there isn’t too much overhang at the front of back, and be aware that the tent is 89” long, it will pop out from the rack, and it can be noisy. As most hardshells, they are preferably mounted over larger and longer vehicles, but they can work on smaller SUVs too. Just be mindful of dimensions, weight, and looks.

Is the iKamper BDV Duo compatible with my roof rack?

Most likely the answer is yes. Mounting the iKamper BDV Duo to any rack is possible. It comes with mounting brackets and hardware, so it can be easily attached to platform racks, bed racks or cross bars. Just make sure the bars or slats on which you mount the tent are between 32 to 48” apart.

Also, it’s important to note this tent weighs 150 lbs, meaning you need a roof rack with a dynamic weight capacity (when the car is in motion) of at least 150 lbs.

Can I leave things inside my BDV Duo?

It’ll be hard. Sheets you can, perhaps a sleeping bag, but definitely not a pillow. The BDV Duo is just 7” tall when closed, that’s one of the slimmest if not the lowest profiled roof top tent in the world. That means you won’t be able to leave much inside of it. However, what you lose in cargo space, you gain in aerodynamics, less wind resistance, and more importantly total height of your vehicle to fit into parking lots or garages.
